Amazing how all these people can be divided into their ethnic subgroups, but everyone from Italians to Swedes in America are lumped into “White”.


What happens when you bread “ypipo” down into their ethnic subgroups?

Lebanese look pretty white, at least the ones in Lafayette do.

Basques are also white.

A lot of South African immigrants are wealthy white farmers.

Or political related threads that Mingo doesn’t agree with don’t belong here. If we’re being honest.

The statists are weaponizing certain segments of the population with endless welfare and low expectations. It is pretty irritating.

Not one bit.

If you don't like something, you don't have to click on it. It's pretty simple.

Just like whining about it, it does absolutely nothing.

I think you underestimate how much money you can make running convenience stores. Those kinds of incomes aren't reserved for white collar workers.



My Indian-American friend owns a convenience store. It's his side gig. His main gig is in IT at a local hospital. He bought the convenience store with money his family sent him from India, and he shares the profits with them. He said it's a pretty common arrangement with Indian-Americans. His dad lives with him and basically runs the convenience store.

Those are ancestries that the OP put up there. They have Swedish and Italian as well.

Wealth has very little to do with race and a whole lot to do with culture. There are many different cultures inside of a race. The races with the most negative subcultures will always have the most poverty. The races with the cultures that focus on education and technology will have the highest wealth.

The wealthy subcultures, regardless of race, will always promote the negative subcultures because someone has to dig ditches and build buildings and roads if they are able to find jobs.

If forced to report this (and ONLY if forced), this is how the WaPo, NYT, CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, PMSNBC, etc. would report this --

What is there to agree or disagree with? Good for those ethnic groups for being high earners. Maybe everyone could learn a thing or two from them.

I would assume the household income for those with college degrees is probably like 120k or so.

I bet the majority of the South African Americans look white.

The Basque people as well.

that's pretty strange. Usually the convenience stores are run by Pakistanis and Indians stick to the hotel/motel business
